Redneck Bride

Bobbi Jo looked so pretty
In her wedding gown
But her veil of silk illusion
Couldn't hide her frown

All her friends and family
Were in the church that night
To see the "had to get married" wedding
And the shotgun her pa painted white

It was a FORMAL weddin' don'tcha know

Kool write, made me chuckle. Also reminded me off a track by Roy C. called shotgun wedding from the early seventies>>James
